research Reviewer #1 (Public review): Mesenchymal Meis2 controls whisker development independently from trigeminal sensory innervation
Whiskers can form without sensory nerves or Foxd1, thanks to Meis2 in mesenchymal cells.
research Melanocyte dysfunctions: future and promise of stem cells
Melanocyte stem cells hold promise for skin regeneration and treating pigmentation issues.
research Newly born mesenchymal cells disperse through a rapid mechanosensitive migration
Newly born mesenchymal cells quickly spread out in response to tissue tension during early development.
research Chemicals and Stem Cells in the Promotion of Regeneration
Chemicals and stem cells combined have advanced regenerative medicine with few safety concerns, focusing on improving techniques and treatment effectiveness.
research Defining The Role of Primary Cilia on Skin Derived Precursors.
Elongating cilia boosts SKP stem cell renewal, especially with PDGF.
research In vivoreprogramming of wound-resident cells generates skin with hair
Scientists can now create skin with hair by reprogramming cells in wounds.
research 706 Engrailed-1 promotes eccrine sweat gland development in permissive environments
The Engrailed-1 gene plays a key role in the development of sweat glands in mice.
research Differentiation of the sebaceous gland
The exact molecular mechanisms of sebaceous gland function are still unclear.
research Glandular metaplasia of hair follicles and other responses to vitamin A excess in cultures of rodent skin
Excess vitamin A can cause hair follicles to change into gland-like structures.
research The Effect of Hairless Mutant Gene on The Thymus and Skin Under The C_(57)BL/6 Genetic Background
The hairless mutant gene causes early hair loss and affects skin and thymus development in mice.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Bulge in Human Fetal Skin: The Human Fetal Bulge Is a Pool of Undifferentiated Keratinocytes
research The surface and internal features of pubic hair: A comparative study with those of scalp hair
Pubic hair has a thicker, more protective outer layer than scalp hair, possibly due to evolution.
research Function and underlying mechanisms of seasonal colour moulting in mammals and birds: what keeps them changing in a warming world?
Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.
research Structure and Development of the Skin and Cutaneous Appendages
Understanding skin structure and development helps diagnose and treat skin disorders.
research A new family of Acarines belonging to the suborder Sarcoptiformes parasitic in the hair follicles of Primates
Two new mite species were found in a monkey's hair follicles, leading to a new genus and family proposal.
research Indian Hedgehog Controls Proliferation and Differentiation in Skin Tumorigenesis and Protects against Malignant Progression
Indian Hedgehog helps control skin cell growth and protects against aggressive skin cancer.
research Generation and characterization of hair-bearing skin organoids from human pluripotent stem cells
Scientists created hair-growing skin models from stem cells, which could help treat hair loss and skin diseases.
research Outbreak of dermatophytosis in farmed mink in the USA.
A fungal infection caused skin lesions in farmed mink kits, but they remained healthy.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the formation and seasonal changes of nuptial pads in Rana chensinensis
Nuptial pads in Chinese brown frogs change seasonally due to specific gene activity.
research LB1774 Establishing competent morphogenetic fields for tissue pattern regeneration in skin organoids
Skin organoids can regenerate hair by forming specific cell units with certain signals.
research Life of the B10 Mouse: A View from the Hair Follicles and Tissue Stem Cells
Mice skin matures by day 200, leading to aging signs like curved hair follicles and white hairs due to changes in skin stem cells.
research Morphogenesis of chimeric hair follicles in engineered skin substitutes with human keratinocytes and murine dermal papilla cells
Engineered skin can grow chimeric hair follicles only with mouse dermal papilla cells.
research Slug (Snai2) Expression during Skin and Hair Follicle Development
Slug (Snai2) helps regulate hair growth timing in mice.
research [Development of interfollicular epidermis on the surface of collagen framework of the dermis in experimental animals].
Keratinocytes grew and migrated into hair follicle areas but disappeared after 15-20 days.
research Epidermal homeostasis: a balancing act of stem cells in the skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
research Dedifferentiation of committed epithelial cells into stem cells in vivo
Certain mature cells in mouse lungs can turn back into stem cells to aid in tissue repair.
research Exogenous Testosterone or Testosterone with Finasteride Increases Bone Mineral Density in Older Men with Low Serum Testosterone
Testosterone therapy increases bone density in older men with low testosterone levels.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
research Stem Cells and the Niche: A Dynamic Duo
Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell behavior and tissue health, and their decline can impact aging and cancer.
